EOP Violation Severity Levels Revisions
Related Files
Status:
NERC staff is finalizing the Violation
Severity Level compliance filing which will be made on or before March
1, 2010.
Purpose/Industry Need:
The
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in its Order on Compliance
Filing dated June 7, 2007, directed NERC to replace the “Levels of
Non-compliance” with “Violation Severity Levels” (VSLs) in the 83
previously approved reliability standards by March 1, 2008. Project
2007-23 Violation Severity Levels was initiated to respond to FERC’s
directive.
VSLs
define the degree to which compliance with a requirement or
sub-requirement was not achieved. As set forth in the NERC Sanction
Guidelines, VSLs are considered in conjunction with Violation Risk
Factors to determine the base penalty range for a violation of a
reliability standard requirement or sub-requirement. Revising the VSLs for the 8 EOP standards in question
will enable the ERO’s Sanctions Guidelines to be used as designed for
these standards.
Revise the VSLs for the eight EOP standards that were not approved in
the balloting process for Project 2007-23 in support of stakeholder
comments submitted during the balloting process.
